As much as you want it to be Sheena Easton Mex, you need to accept the possibility that it may not be.

Otherwise you could end up devastated.

The Mail said yesterday we were about to appoint Ling. They could at least pretend to believe their own rumours

Ooo a new name. Well, he's been those notorious bookies lists for a while... He hasn't played for Sheffield United for a couple of weeks now with a back injury.

I've said Speed for some time now if we're going down the palyer manager road, but AF has said several times he want's an experienced man, and if we did get Speed would he only want to play as a last 10 sub?

 Not sure what I'd make of Speed....he's obviously a consumate professional with the highest standards, he seems quite grounded as an individual, but must be worth as much as AF.  My worry would be he's no experience at lower level....but generally think he'd be worth a shot.

 Dicky Dosh eh....not the name demanded by our fans, but a safe pair of hands though.

Hes currently academy director at Newcastle so maybe JCP will get his wish and have the return of the messiah...Nile "The Lone" Ranger.

Apparently his first act as Swindon manager would be to bring in a Brazilian striker currently playing for CSKA Moscow.

but Money couldn't buy me love.

I am actually warming to the idea of Richard Money as manager.

Here is a quote from him when he was at Warsaw.....sounded exactly like what we need.

Quote
But using largely the same defenders, Money has also managed to create a near impregnable barrier to provide the platform for his side's promotion challenge.

Remarkably, Walsall are yet to concede a goal at home in the league, with their six matches yielding a 100% record.

My philosophy is to build from the back. That's not being negative but you can't win without keeping clean sheets," said Money.

They have always had footballers here and we want to try and play our football and when we can we have done that.

But I felt we needed to be tough and needed to be able to defend at set-pieces and keep clean sheets.

Richard Money was my "early speculation" choice - thought he did a very good job at Walsall and they were mad to let him go. I gave up on the idea though when the rumour mill started. Could do a lot worse than Money.

They could ship him out to us to gain some experience - Nile "On Loan" Ranger

back to Speed, he's on sky sports now for the Villa/Everton match. I wonder if it will get a mentioned.

Also, Speed is the welsh Malpas...

 Interestingly Villa v Everton is the most played match in the English top flight...both have 70 wins.

 Malpas is just outside of Newport....if it was Speed, I'm sure Mex could think of a way of celebrating.

I'd be happy with Money. A very good manager. Really did turn Walsall around after Merson fucked it all up there. They haven't quite been the same since he left.

I'm not sure about Money. Obviously a good manager and a safe pair of hand, but in terms of a season ticket renewer, hmm.

People I do not want though: Martin Ling, Colin Calderwood: What's the point of signing managers that are doing shite?

Post by: DMR on Sunday, December 7, 2008, 18:21:14
I'd be well fucked off with Money after the names mentioned, if I'm honest.

OK he did the job at Walsall by building from the back but they had better defenders than we did and their football was not pretty to watch in the slightest.

I've heard there's not much interest with money these days.

Not sure I would worry about that right now, we seem to play a game of who can kick it the highest from the defence, just saving us from any threat of relegation would do for me this season!
